BackgroundIn critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), rapid skeletal muscle atrophy frequently develops in the acute phase. This ICU-acquired weakness can significantly impair long-term physical function. Although the biceps brachii cross-sectional area (CSA) is commonly used to assess muscle atrophy, its ultrasound imaging can be technically challenging, and the flexor carpi ulnaris may offer a more accessible alternative. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whe...
